How much about woodworking did you really know when you first started? I'm a total newbie who has just recently purchased an the basics of a shop but I know absolutely nothing about it aside from what I've read and watched on DIY.

I couldn't actually MAKE something to save my life, and I'm a little disheartened.

The chair looks great; how long did it take you to make?

Those look great! I'm going to start on my first real project here next week, I'll post it here when it's done.

I'm in the same boat, I've been reading a lot.

I believe a jig is just a template to cut something else, whether it's dovetail joints, etc.

So I'm confused a little. Did you use a router to cut those or what? I've seen a bunch of different ways listed.
